Trauma Informed Care of Immigrant and Refugee Children

The National Health Collaborative on Violence and Abuse has a webinar coming up next month: Trauma Informed Care of Immigrant and Refugee Children. The session will be held November 16th from 1-2:30 pm ET. CMEs will be available for physicians (sadly, with all of the nursing representation in this organization, they still aren’t offering CEUs for us, but a girl can hope).
